Default Program

The original program installed in the ER-5115. The register has a default program that makes it operational after a RAM clear. Nearly all option, rate, and status programs are set to zero as the default condition.

Default Level

The level set, via programming, as the main, or surface level. When levels are programmed as Pop- up levels, the keyboard returns to this level automatically.

Discount (Item)

An item discount (coupon or %) subtracts an amount or percentage from the price of an item. This subtraction nets the PLU total.

Discount (Sale)

A sale discount (coupon or %) subtracts an amount or percentage from the entire sale.

Error Condition

An error condition signals that illegal operation has occurred. It is identified by an audible tone and an error descriptor appearing on the display.

Error Correct

An error correct operation voids the last item entered, it must be used within a sale.

Gallonage

Gallonage is a status that may be assigned to a PLU. Gallonage PLUs accept a price, but print both the price and the quantity of gallons sold. The quantity of gallons is computed from the price per gallon, which is set as the preset price in Program 200.

Hash

Hash status for a PLU allows the amount of the PLU entry to add to the sale, as well as the individual PLU total on the PLU report. However, the amount is not added to the Net sales, Gross sales, or Grand total. Hash status is used to account for sales of items such as lottery tickets, or bottle deposits, that do not represent reportable income.

HALO

The high amount lock-out (HALO) limits the amount allowed to be entered in a PLU, or function key.

Journal

The journal tape is a separate tape that records all of the transactions on the register. This is the management's copy of all register activity.
